Martin Dingle Wall - Actor/Acting Coach
6 Reviews
Great acting often comes down to your relationship with yourself. Self exploration is the key to courage in my opinion. All the good & the bad parts of us are the key to understanding other characters. The work is about becoming comfortable with what you find in yourself & becoming familiar with the unfamiliar. I think this is what contributes greatly to engaging & honest performances. My approach is at its core, self discovery born from the scripted word.
